Entitlement Management Issues Resolved in 2026.01
The following issues were resolved for entitlement management in the 2026.01 release.
| • | Updating Line Item Quantity Via Web Services |
| • | Transferring Line Items of Type Upgrade Order Using SOAP API |
Updating Line Item Quantity Via Web Services
(Cases 03042184, 04103062; SWM-27652)
Previously, FlexNet Operations returned an error when attempting to update the quantity of a deployed line item through web services under the following system configuration settings (both under System > Configuration > FlexNet Operations > General Options):
| • | Update line item count of deployed line item was selected. |
| • | Allow Editing of Deployed Entities was unselected. |
This behavior was incorrect, as the first setting should allow quantity updates even when deployed.
The issue has been resolved. Users can now successfully update the quantity of a deployed line item using web services when the above configuration is applied.
Transferring Line Items of Type Upgrade Order Using SOAP API
(Case 02974592, SWM-24805)
In earlier releases, when transferring line items of type Upgrade Order from one entitlement to another via the EntitlementOrderService SOAP API, the operation failed with the following error: “Trusted or embedded license models cannot be set to line item <ID>; it is not a new order and does not have a parent defined.” The error occurred for line items using Trusted or Embedded license models.
However, the same action succeeded when it was performed through the Producer Portal UI (see the User Guide topic Transfer Entitlement Line Item Wizard for procedural information).
In the 2026.01 release, upgrade order line items can be transferred without issue using the transferLineItems operation of the EntitlementOrderService SOAP API, which creates parity with the Producer Portal functionality.
To allow the transfer of upgrade order line items, the new configuration option Allow transfer of child line items for upgrades via SOAP must be selected. The option is located under System > Configuration > FlexNet Operations > General Options. It is unselected by default.
